Ford Ranchero 1970 Description

1970 RANCHERO GTTorino Ranchero 429Thunderjet V-, C6 Trans, 9" Rear
Up for auction is my 1970 Ranchero GT.This is a very original Calif. truck with all the best factory options.
I bought this truck from the 2nd owner in So. Cal about 12 years ago with the intention of doing a full restoration. It was a daily driver until about 4 years ago while I collected the mechanical/trim parts it needed and then it mostly stayed parked. This is a rare highly optioned truck (look at the numbers on the Marti report) and a great candidate for restoration butI've got way too many projects so it's time to let this one go.At this time it starts runs and drives but would recommend trailering any real distance until it's gone through mechanically.Truck is located in Los Angeles, Ca. 90027All the NOS and spare parts I have collected are included in the sale. (See list below)
DESCRIPTION:

Brakes are functioning and not leaking but will need rebuild.WHEELS are beautiful 15X 7 Magnums in perfect condition (just installed) and tires are very good too.(Rears are just rollers but 2nd pr. of TA Radials go with to match fronts)
BODY:Original 921-A PASTEL BLUE Ext. (Looks white but called pastel blue) with Blue GT stripes, Black Vinyl Top, Tint Glass,Sport Mirrors and Optional Hideaway Headlights.Body and floors are solid but this car spent lots of time in the sun so original paint is deteriorated and there is surface rust on body panels and in bed. The lower sections of fenders and 1/4s will need patch repair or replacement. Rocker panels and doors are very solid.The bed is also very straight and solid but will need to be media blasted and there are some small holes in front corner areas.

Nice straight additional used tailgate is also included.Vinyl top is shot and needs to be replaced.Windshield has a small crack but a N.O.S. factory tintwindshield is included.
